“You keep your confidence when you keep winning,” said Hogg, whose team improved to 6-2. “You take that and move forward.

“We also got a lot of players into the game, and we're going to need all of our players as the season goes on.”

Still, facing an overmatched squad that competed a man down all night, the Stampede never were in trouble.

Six different players (Hogg, Amaury Nunes, Kyle Breitmeyer, Wayne Roberts, Jack Bailey and Jonatan Torres) scored, with Hogg netting the first and final goals of the contest.

In all, Ocala peppered Schulz goalkeeper Kent Freud with 29 shots while the Stampede's Alex Bolowich was forced to handle just three (none in the second half).

Ocala coach Cheyne Roberts pointed out three players he thought stood out against Schulz (0-7), a program that once included United States' national team standout Jozy Altidore.

“Kenny Hogg had a good game around the box, and Kyle Breitmeyer created several chances,” Roberts said. “And (Stephen) Walmsley had a great game in the midfield, defending and attacking.”

The victory, coupled with Orlando City U23's 1-0 loss to Panama City Beach earlier in the evening, lifted the Stampede into first place in the Southeast Division of the Southern Conference in the Premier Developmental League.

That sets up what Hogg called a “massive” game next Saturday in Ocala between the Stampede (18 points) and the Lions (5-3-1, 16 points). It also will give the home team a chance to avenge a 2-1 loss at the Seminole Soccer Complex on June 14.

“It's big,” Roberts said. “We try to treat every opponent the same way, but we know what that game will mean if you look at the standings.”
